Without letting Aunt Chen refuse, Mr. Zhou dropped his act and said domineeringly, “Don’t worry, I definitely won’t let you help for nothing! We’ll remember this favor for the rest of our lives.”
Madam Zhou was even more direct. “I heard that Auntie’s son is in his second year of university? We can help him a lot when he looks for a job in the future. As long as you help us speak to Qiao Nian, this matter will be easy to handle.”
“I understand.” Aunt Chen put the vegetables back into the basket. “I can’t help you. Take your things back!”
Madam Zhou panicked. “Why can’t you help us?! Just speak to her. It’s not a big deal.”
Aunt Chen shook her head. “I won’t speak to her.”
Madam Zhou was angered. She thought Aunt Chen was deliberately making things difficult for her.
Not waiting for them to speak, Aunt Chen said bluntly, “As for my son’s future job… After he graduates, if he has the ability, he can find a job himself. If he doesn’t, he can set up a stall with me.”
She had never seen the world but had a scale in her heart and could differentiate between good and bad.
In the beginning, it was indeed her who pitied Nian Nian and took care of her when she was young. However, she believed anyone else in her place would have helped the little girl.
She did not want anything in return.
After that, Nian Nian helped her a lot.
Not only did she call the rebellious Chen Yuan back to study, but he also got into a major university.
She even helped treat her husband’s illness.
Their family had received too much favor from Nian Nian.
How could she trouble her for a job opportunity?
“I’m not gonna sell my conscience for his job.”
Aunt Chen said calmly, “I’m not the only one who won’t do this. My son’s not allowed to do this either. Otherwise, I don’t mind disinheriting him.”
“Take your things back.”
This was not the first time she faced someone who wanted to look for Qiao Nian. “If you don’t take it back, I won’t keep it either. At most, I’ll leave it with the guard. If you don’t take it, they’ll treat it as trash in half a month.”
Mr. Zhou did not expect this seemingly inexperienced rural woman to have such magnanimity and bearing. He sized her up, and his smile disappeared. “Then Auntie, you’re saying you won’t help us?”
Aunt Chen wasn’t afraid of him. She shook her head. “I can’t help.”
Mr. Zhou grabbed Madam Zhou, who was about to argue with Aunt Chen, and stood up. He looked down at her and said coldly, “We will come again tomorrow. I hope you will have changed your mind.”
There seemed to be a deeper meaning in his words.
Aunt Chen only said, “You don’t have to come. No matter how many times you come, this will always be my answer. I can’t help you.”
Mr. Zhou couldn’t even maintain his basic expression anymore. He said to the others expressionlessly, “Let’s go.”
“Take your things with you.” Aunt Chen wasn’t angry and called them.
Mr. Zhou walked to the door and gave his assistant a look. The assistant went back and took the gifts.
The group went out in a grandiose manner.
Perhaps because they were angry, they did not control their strength when closing the door and deliberately made a loud noise.
Aunt Chen waited for them to leave before returning to the bedroom.
Leaning against the head of the bed, Uncle Chen asked when she entered, “Have those people left?”
Aunt Chen nodded and tucked him in. “Mm, they’ve just left.”
“I wonder why they’re looking for Nian Nian.” Uncle Chen looked worried. “I don’t think these people are easy to deal with. She must be tired out alone outside.”
